Cutting duck heads in half works great for my small dogs. My yorkie has gulped the end of a chicken foot on occasion. It did not cause issues but necks and feet tend to encourage him to gulp the last piece. Mine do well with chicken wings.
Hi Mariah, 👋🏽 Thank you for all the love, passion and hard work you share with all the raw feeders. Your videos are always informative and very appreciated. I've noticed that beef kidney causes my dog an unpleasant stinky breath. I brush his teeth evey night before going to bed but the smell still remains. How can I avoid that? 😅
Thanks so much, Leana! :) You notice it's only when you add kidney to the diet? How much do you feed? Kidney is certainly smelly, but I'm shocked it lingers so much since it's such a small portion of the diet! You can of course feed different secreting organs, but other than teeth brushing with enzymatic toothpaste, there really isn't something that can completely take the smell away from specific foods.
@@PawsofPrey yes, the bad breath is only present when I feed him the kidneys. According to his weight, only 0.48 oz. It's a small amount so I'm not sure why his breath stinks every time he eats this. This is the reason I don't feed him kidneys, but I replaced it with bull testicles.
Great video, as usual. My two cats absolutely hate kidney, no matter the species, and leave it untouched when I put it on their meals (I tried to cut it really small, but their sense of smell and dexterity with their tongue is amazing), so I usually complement the liver with thymus or testis. Any advice or recommendation?
Awesome n informative upload. Deciding on raw vs kibble foods. Explaining the various raw foods step by step n its benefits. Kudos. Especially will benefit from ur CHEAT SHEET !! New subscriber because of this vid. Looking forward to ur next one. Peace
My boys love everything raw so far the past few years. Only one needed to warm up to certain liver and kidneys when fully thawed. Slightly frozen and he ate it. Now it’s all gobbled down. For anyone unaware - green tripe will be the smelliest things you might not be ready for 😅 You’ll think it’s an edible bowel movement haha! Maybe you local farmers market sells it as well if there is a beef vendor.
I love this video because I've had a hard time finding a few things at local and chain stores, I don't know why I didn't think of checking some international stores. I'll see if I can find some good stuff for the ol pup
I enjoy your videos, but a lot of the items mentioned, are difficult to find near me. I feed my two cats, ground beef, chicken thigh meat and some beef liver. Once a week, they get a tin of sardines. I add a supplement for whatever else they need.
Hi thanks so much for the videos ❤ We've just started our journey of raw food,, and your videos help so much... Hope it'll go smoothly... but my 1 dog had vomit small yellow liquid on day 7,, and won't eat in the evening.. Hope everything's fine and normal
Good luck on your journey! What you explained sounds like nothing more than hunger pukes, which can happen when switching to a diet that's a lot more easily digestible and doesn't sit in the stomach for a long time (like commercial food) I remedy this with a small snack before bed (or before any long stretch without food), but if your dog is actually acting ill, I would consult your vet (though I will warn you, they will often blame the raw diet without any background information)
I’m getting a corgi pup soon and I would love to hear about you experience raising your corgi on a raw diet especially from an early age! Is there specifics to look out for when it comes to this breed?
Nope, nothing different from another breed their size/weight! Just feed the proper-sized meaty bones (which you can see on my free cheat sheet) congrats on your new puppy :)
@jfros9794 mine just turned 1 about a week ago. But I started her off small with chicken feet and backs and I've given her the raw egg too. How about you?
@@jfros9794 my dog just gets a mixture of raw patties and quality dry dog food along with the meats mentioned here. also gets cooked veggies, fruit, and yogurt.
I have tried feeding raw green tripe many times from different reputable resources. This is the only thing that makes my dog chew her feet. I suspect it may have grain in it although it is supposedly grass finished. The other thing could be that it is high in histamine.
@Paws of Prey I have read some articles where anything high in histamines can aggravate yeast in some dogs. This unfortunately includes some very healthy things such as fermented foods. There may be truth to this. It seems to be a trigger for her. I hate not feeding it though because I know it is a great source of manganese. Her gut is great so she does not seem to miss the probiotic benefits. I gotta listen to my dog!
I only feed wild game meat. Supermarket meat is only for emergencies. Game eats it's appropriate diet and is much more sustainable in Europe at least (no large predators left to control numbers), no hormones, antibiotics or bad feed is given to them. Especially venison, she is a Pomeranian so I feed small birds and rabbit as well. Can be found whole with all secreting organs intact
@@amosjuliantampubolon2413 yes, wild boar as well. Make sure they eat every thing plus some natural forrest dirt. Lots of good bacteria, strengthens their gut microbiome and lining. That's how carnivores would naturally eat, on the floor in the dirt.
Green tribe is found at your local tractor or farm outlet much cheaper than online they probably will give it to you cuz it's not clean for human consumption❤
Thanks a lot for all your amazing content, I have a question 'Green tripe' I can find it here in my local butcher but they have it already cleaned is no longer green but white, will this still provide some sort of nutritional value?
It's also impossible to find it here in NYC. I've noticed that the tripe is bleached until sparking white, so I don't buy it. I wouldn't even consume it if I ate meat.
I tried to feed my cats Green tripe after watching your video... But they refuse to eat those. I guess it's because the strong smell? Would you have any suggestion on that?
New foods may not always stick at first and may take a few tries! You could try cutting it into small pieces (unless it's already ground), offering it when your kitties are the most hungry (before any other food), adding a tasty topper to it , or lightly searing it
I have a picky Golden that used to eat certain parts of his meal and leave the others. Now I mix everything together along with a bone broth topper and he eats it all with no hesitation
I have a 6 month old German Shepherd and I'm not really knowledgeable about feeding dogs raw foods or how much and I haven't been able to find some of the things that are recommended. Would I be OK feeding my dog some raw foods that I'm able to find easy with her dry food?
Hey so I just saw your comment. I have GSD dog as well. No you do not want to mix kibble with raw. The rate of digestion is much different. Raw food is know to digest at a rate of about 8 hours where as processed can take up to 24 hours. This has the potential of causing a bacteria build up. This is why when you switch your dog to raw, you fast a day before introducing our food, no slow change over.
In my area I have been searching unsuccessfully for several weeks for chicken hearts. I've tried several stores. Until recently it was in all of them. What's up? I'm using beef heart, but the kitties like chicken heart better.
have you had any issues with "protein allergies" in your dogs? It seems that my 10yo (approximate, rescued), 7 year long carnivore doggo started to get skin rash and yeasty ear infections. The vet told me it's "due to protein allergies from the meat". I'm rather skeptical about that and have been trying to "poll" anyone to see what they've experienced.
Chichen or turkey hearts are not cheap anymore:(( $5-$6 per pack:(( For my cat I do grind them with the rest, iver and chicken breast..make like a pate dish..adding egg shels powder (made by me:) taurine, little pink salt and vitamins from Dr. Jones...my cat love it. Thank you for your videos!!!
My puppy swallows the chicken foot jn a second 😳. Should I just blend it up? I fear she will choke on it. My pup (4 months old) eats her food so quick like she is on a timer or something. Advice? Should I feed her thru a slow feeder bowl? And I have never been able to download the cheat sheets 😔. Am I missing a step? I type in my email but I don't see it in my inbox or spam.
my st bernard and great pyrenese mix might love that duck head...... Scout has loved the oxtail he gets on occasion and I wasn't sure about the other things you don't normally see at the store....
Thank you for the informative video, I. have one question, can we feed meat that we bought that same day from the supermarket? Or should we freeze it for some days for the bacteria to die?
Okay pardon my ignorance as this is new to me. I get that in nature animals wouldn't cook their food but aren't parasites a concern? Mainly pork and chicken? Please help me understand how dogs and cats are safe from salmonella and other raw food risks I'd never intentionally expose myself to. Thanks for the info!!
Hello as i m in india we have only limited options like chicken and goat and rarely we can find pig as beef and other animals here are a taboo to the indians and duck we can't find duck anywhere cause ppl here dont eat duck 😅 so can I switch those meats with either chicken or goat and if nutrients are less then can i add supplements to support???
OR you can purchase these proteins from a reputable online raw food pet food company. There are several in the U.S. They take the work out of the process. If you have cats as I do, You can add a Taurine supplement to your raw food.
Another thing to look at when looking at the premade brands is what parts they use. A lot just use the cheapest off cut parts of the animal (most of which are great to feed as part of the diet) but don’t offer a lot of variety in terms of which body parts and which organs are added.
Ever heard of Pottenger's Cats? We (humans) should also consume raw (and not just muscle meats). Currently, chickens and pigs are primarily raised on inappropriate diets thus their meat is inferior to wild or grass-fed forest/pasture raised animals. Freezing the meat is less optimal than fresh but doesn't destroy the nutrients like cooking does...
I work in a supermarket, and can easily take advantage of meats in the mark down section. I need to stock up on a variety of meats before preparing a raw diet.
My country (Hungary) has very strict food and meat rules. But still how do I make sure there are no maggots and parasites in the meat? Uncooked meals are always some kind of a risk. Maybe beef is not so much, but that would be crazy expensive.
I am considering feeding raw to my dog and right now considering a pre-made grind. However I am thinking about feeding whole prey. Is that still complete and balanced?
How do you combat a picky eater? My dog won't eat duck heads even if I cut the head in four pieces. Or Things he do eat, sometimes he just don't want it.
I’d rather not go for tareff, easier to store in the house without disgust. So, ya know any vitamin d oils out there? Or I can get separate gloves & freezer & cabinets for my dog. Or I can just get a parrot & save all the hassle.
Hi! I have a Bull Mastiff 4 and a half month 55 lbs lol and I just switched him to raw last week. I have honestly gone quite high quality and it is way too expensive so will be shopping around. My question is.. for instance Beef kidneys or Livers.. does grass fed/finished affect these organs?
@@Magickfae Oh no! Just email support@pawsofprey.com and I'll help you out lol. But to answer your question, yes the nutrient content of these organs will be different depending on how the animal was raised and fed!
@@PawsofPrey that makes sense! Okay will do thank you! One more question if you have time to answer 🤦♀️ lol is.. I am currently doing 73/17/10 and I am not getting the edible bone right on point.. I am getting like 20 grams off. I will go get chicken feet to fill in the tiny gap. But is it okay every once and awhile ? Or should I make sure it's accurate every single time.
would whole rats or mice be a nutritious balanced prey food. Not wild but purchased raised? Will my puppy eat the fur to or do I need to skin it first? Same question for rabbits thank you
Yep these are fine to feed, but I would feed more than just those 2 - variety is key! And yes, fur is beneficial to feed, it's a natural fiber source! If the fur seems like too much though, you can shave it down a bit
I get a green tripe in my butcher but is is kind of a yellowish brown one, not white and definitely not green, I asked them if it's 'Dirty' lol and they said yes, but since it's not green I guess is not really the kind that would provide all the manganese?
I've heard there is no such thing as a pure 100% grass fed cow in the supermarket. The rancher will always throw in some grain usually towards the end of the cows life to have some amount of fat.
Thank you for your videos! My cat doesn't have all the teeth and as a resource of meaty bone I only give her grind chiken necks..Are chicken heads ok to feed?Or is there some other options for meaty bone that I could grind or cut in some way?
I'm a little confused by the ratios for a balanced diet. In your cheat sheet you say 40-51% muscle meat, but in the Rawpetsrule feeding guide, she has only 35% muscle meat
This is because she also includes fish, other seafood, and a fiber source into her percentages. I do suggest these foods as well, but I don't include it into the percentages just to make things more visually simple!
Hello, what are your thoughts on adding a small amount of blood to a cats meal? I can get pure beef blood and my cats love it but not sure how to feed it. At the moment I am just adding a small amount to their meals every so often as a treat
I got 2 bully’s, a classic and standard. The standard, he’s a male and is a Merle. Both of my dogs just had a litter almost 3 weeks ago, 6 puppies in total and got one male n female Merle 😭 I need to change my dogs diet to raw.
@@kingdre_2297 a small amount of water soluble nutrients can be lost, yes. But the main reason you shouldn't do this is because you'd be splashing bacteria all over the sink and potentially onto the counters/yourself. It's just not necessary! You're not really "washing" anything off.
@@PawsofPrey Alright got it. Been trying to convince mom to buy raw food for my 10 year old dog. Maltese shi tzu mix. Idk what to get him. I was thinking Chiken Heart, Liver, and Ground beef. Can he eat raw chicken eggs?
My puppy eats kibble (soaked with water or water from boiling chicken)as her dinner (only half a cup even though she's about 6kg and 9 months old, she really doesn't need much) but almost every day gets one of the following • frozen raw chicken neck • frozen raw chicken tip • raw frozen beef mince • splash of goat milk • teaspoon of yogurt • small egg • salmon skin • various vege/fruit like carrot, apple, pumpkin and zucchini • treats like dried beef liver, dried carrot, dried apple, providore air dried food, cow hooves, homemade peanut butter cookies and salmon jerky I also add a fish oil capsule, flax/chia seeds, herbs (e.g. turmeric, oregano, thyme, cinnamon) to her meals a couple times a week. Feedback? Any affordable ways to improve? Chicken tips are superrrr cheap from my butcher and a good size. I could perhaps get my hands on raw beef liver, kidneys, beef tongue, chicken hearts etc but they might be pricey. I have friends who are slaughtering tons of sheep in the near future so hopefully I'll get some organ meats of them. I don't want to feed wjole heads cos they freak me out but I can deal with feet and necks.
@@cleancutguy1892 because it's the most convenient and cost effective. I am a 15 year old disabled girl with 1 of my parents working. We are blessed to have our own home and be debt free but we aren't millionaires. Raising a service dog is extremely expensive. Raw feeding is VERY costly, time consuming and inaccessible. My pup is on a decent kibble, i think she'll live.
I keep hearing that cats can’t digest beef liver and that chicken liver is better? There’s so many different opinions idk what to do or believe sometimes lol
💥Please please be carful while feeding PORK!!! 💥It can contain Aujeszky’s disease and our animals can become sick!! I feed my cat RAW for 14 years and never have I given her any PORK! Please look into feeding your animals RAW don't only watch youtube video`s but do your own research.. You van alsof feed small birds like quals/ baby chicks and such.
Unfortunately, the cheat sheet is not free. You have to subscribe to the formulator which has a cost before the free cheat sheet is emailed to you. Great video but false advertising.

Because it's actually not a trend it's what canines and felines ate before us humans stepped in - just in the form of a whole animal vs individual pieces of meat from the grocery store lol.
@@jonathanyeong324 a softer, shinier coat, less shedding, smaller less smelly poop, cleaner teeth, more stable energy levels, better weight management - many things! I do add in some veggies, but the main base of the diet is meat, bone, organ, and some fish.

As long as you don’t cook the chicken with the bones. Raw is fine the bone won’t splinter

I am considering feeding raw to my dog and right now considering a pre-made grind. However I am thinking about feeding whole prey. Is that still complete and balanced?
If you feed a variety of whole prey, then that's the ideal diet!
Thank you so much ❤
How do you combat a picky eater?
My dog won't eat duck heads even if I cut the head in four pieces.
Or
Things he do eat, sometimes he just don't want it.
Can't do the duck head or the tongue. If I use Meal Mix (Dr. Mercola Ray Food supplement) won't it cover a lot of these other odd foods?
Pet stores sell Frozen rats and frozen mice, some sell baby chicks Frozen rabbits etc. all the organs all at once including brain
I’d rather not go for tareff, easier to store in the house without disgust.
So, ya know any vitamin d oils out there?
Or I can get separate gloves & freezer & cabinets for my dog.
Or I can just get a parrot & save all the hassle.
I love your videos!❤
Can/ should you season any of this?
Hi! I have a Bull Mastiff 4 and a half month 55 lbs lol and I just switched him to raw last week. I have honestly gone quite high quality and it is way too expensive so will be shopping around. My question is.. for instance Beef kidneys or Livers.. does grass fed/finished affect these organs?
Also , I'm not sure why but when I enter my email I am not receiving the cheat sheet 😢
Oh boy.. found the cheat sheet and I guess I bought the formulator twice 😭 woops!! Paws of Prey could you help me out I'm so sorry
@@Magickfae Oh no! Just email support@pawsofprey.com and I'll help you out lol.
But to answer your question, yes the nutrient content of these organs will be different depending on how the animal was raised and fed!
@@PawsofPrey that makes sense! Okay will do thank you!
One more question if you have time to answer 🤦♀️ lol is.. I am currently doing 73/17/10 and I am not getting the edible bone right on point.. I am getting like 20 grams off. I will go get chicken feet to fill in the tiny gap. But is it okay every once and awhile ? Or should I make sure it's accurate every single time.
Genuine question, but aren't store bought deli meats treated with chemicals?
It's SO convenient that you're in Gainesville 😂 Where do you go locally for green tripe?
lol! I go to Earth Pets off of Newberry!
would whole rats or mice be a nutritious balanced prey food. Not wild but purchased raised?
Will my puppy eat the fur to or do I need to skin it first? Same question for rabbits thank you
Yep these are fine to feed, but I would feed more than just those 2 - variety is key! And yes, fur is beneficial to feed, it's a natural fiber source! If the fur seems like too much though, you can shave it down a bit
I get a green tripe in my butcher but is is kind of a yellowish brown one, not white and definitely not green, I asked them if it's 'Dirty' lol and they said yes, but since it's not green I guess is not really the kind that would provide all the manganese?
Do you have to cook them or give them raw straight out of bag?
I've heard there is no such thing as a pure 100% grass fed cow in the supermarket. The rancher will always throw in some grain usually towards the end of the cows life to have some amount of fat.
We downloaded the cheat sheet for our puppy now when it comes to the supplements how much of it we suppose to give him ?
Why would you take the bone off when it has tons of value?
Doesn’t pork HAVE to be cooked due to tricomonas or worm risk????
I go over safety precautions for pork and when it's safe to feed raw in this video! th-cam.com/video/4OfcZMQ3TVs/w-d-xo.html
Thank you for your videos!
My cat doesn't have all the teeth and as a resource of meaty bone I only give her grind chiken necks..Are chicken heads ok to feed?Or is there some other options for meaty bone that I could grind or cut in some way?
When I gave her a bigger piece of chicken neck she attempted to swallow the hole piece,I am worried that she will choke on it
Yep chicken heads are great!
@@PawsofPrey thank you very much!
Ever since starting the raw food diet, my dogs breath is stinky. Any suggestions?
Does anyone kmow how or where to buy green tripe?
I'm a little confused by the ratios for a balanced diet. In your cheat sheet you say 40-51% muscle meat, but in the Rawpetsrule feeding guide, she has only 35% muscle meat
This is because she also includes fish, other seafood, and a fiber source into her percentages. I do suggest these foods as well, but I don't include it into the percentages just to make things more visually simple!
Green tripe do you just cut it up and give them t to them how do you prep it
I have to order mine on line. it comes in tube rolls and yes I just cut it up and put it i the bowl
Hello, what are your thoughts on adding a small amount of blood to a cats meal? I can get pure beef blood and my cats love it but not sure how to feed it. At the moment I am just adding a small amount to their meals every so often as a treat
Sure! I love feeding blood when I can actually find it pure without added sodium. Just add a splash to each meal, it's a great iron source
@Paws of Prey thank you! Yes I get it pure no additives from a German company called Haustierkost
Could I heat up blood and mix it with the raw meat? That’ll warm up the meal and also add more water content.
Yep, if it's pure, unseasoned blood! Just don't make it too hot
I have been feeding my dog chicken leg quarters. Is that ok?
I’m in your club. Can you create a monthly recipe based on this list please?
My dog will not eat chicken hearts or liver eat all around it what do I do?
I live in a 90% Muslim country so I cannot find pork. Can you please provide alternatives for pork ingredients?
chicken feet?? wow it is safe for pups and adult pugs to digest?
I got 2 bully’s, a classic and standard. The standard, he’s a male and is a Merle. Both of my dogs just had a litter almost 3 weeks ago, 6 puppies in total and got one male n female Merle 😭 I need to change my dogs diet to raw.
I have 2 huskie one month old
Quick question... Do I have to clean the meat before feeding my dog?
? No answers?
Nope!
@@PawsofPreyif i do clean them. Will it clean off the nutrients?
@@kingdre_2297 a small amount of water soluble nutrients can be lost, yes. But the main reason you shouldn't do this is because you'd be splashing bacteria all over the sink and potentially onto the counters/yourself. It's just not necessary! You're not really "washing" anything off.
@@PawsofPrey Alright got it. Been trying to convince mom to buy raw food for my 10 year old dog. Maltese shi tzu mix. Idk what to get him. I was thinking Chiken Heart, Liver, and Ground beef. Can he eat raw chicken eggs?
As long as u dont bleed, you'll do fine, cause they'll create a lust for raw meat if they smell blood.
My cocker spaniel doesn’t like pork too much.
Hey dose anyone know if I have to take out the intestines of the mackerel when I feed it to my dogs I am worried 😞😞😞😞
Feed whole
@@hannahbanana2942 Oh really! Thank you I was super confused.
Either or! Sometimes I have to remove them for my pets to be interested, but sometimes they're fine with it
@@PawsofPrey oh thank you so much ❤️❤️🐶
My puppy eats kibble (soaked with water or water from boiling chicken)as her dinner (only half a cup even though she's about 6kg and 9 months old, she really doesn't need much) but almost every day gets one of the following
• frozen raw chicken neck
• frozen raw chicken tip
• raw frozen beef mince
• splash of goat milk
• teaspoon of yogurt
• small egg
• salmon skin
• various vege/fruit like carrot, apple, pumpkin and zucchini
• treats like dried beef liver, dried carrot, dried apple, providore air dried food, cow hooves, homemade peanut butter cookies and salmon jerky
I also add a fish oil capsule, flax/chia seeds, herbs (e.g. turmeric, oregano, thyme, cinnamon) to her meals a couple times a week.
Feedback? Any affordable ways to improve? Chicken tips are superrrr cheap from my butcher and a good size. I could perhaps get my hands on raw beef liver, kidneys, beef tongue, chicken hearts etc but they might be pricey.
I have friends who are slaughtering tons of sheep in the near future so hopefully I'll get some organ meats of them. I don't want to feed wjole heads cos they freak me out but I can deal with feet and necks.
@@cleancutguy1892 because it's the most convenient and cost effective. I am a 15 year old disabled girl with 1 of my parents working. We are blessed to have our own home and be debt free but we aren't millionaires. Raising a service dog is extremely expensive.
Raw feeding is VERY costly, time consuming and inaccessible. My pup is on a decent kibble, i think she'll live.
I keep hearing that cats can’t digest beef liver and that chicken liver is better? There’s so many different opinions idk what to do or believe sometimes lol
The only reason I got chicken breast was because it's lower in sodium than thigh so far
Very informative video, but I believe it would be better if you all would use a P filter.
WE raise all our own MEAT as supermarket meats contain lots of unhealthy additives to make it "pretty" for you to buy...
Wow you’re so fancy!
Discussing all these different forms of protein without discussing the need for balancing calcium with protein will lead to dogs with diarrhea.
I’m so afraid of trying new meats as my miniature poodle gets diarrhea so easily.
This vid make me want to eat chicken heart. Has to be healthy for me too.
💥Please please be carful while feeding PORK!!! 💥It can contain Aujeszky’s disease and our animals can become sick!! I feed my cat RAW for 14 years and never have I given her any PORK! Please look into feeding your animals RAW don't only watch youtube video`s but do your own research.. You van alsof feed small birds like quals/ baby chicks and such.
This is also mentioned on this video.
Luna Watson most of these because she is not picky because she is a wolf
Unfortunately, the cheat sheet is not free. You have to subscribe to the formulator which has a cost before the free cheat sheet is emailed to you. Great video but false advertising.
The cheat sheet is free! It's a free PDF download. What you're seeing is probably the formulator discount for new subscribers. If you haven't been able to get the free cheat sheet, I can email it to you personally. Just message me here for it: www.pawsofprey.com/contact
How did the raw food diet trend become popular and why?
Because it's actually not a trend it's what canines and felines ate before us humans stepped in - just in the form of a whole animal vs individual pieces of meat from the grocery store lol.
@@PawsofPrey ok . In your experience, what were the changes you saw in your dog once you fed it 100 percent raw?
@@jonathanyeong324 a softer, shinier coat, less shedding, smaller less smelly poop, cleaner teeth, more stable energy levels, better weight management - many things! I do add in some veggies, but the main base of the diet is meat, bone, organ, and some fish.
thank you@@PawsofPrey
The only thing that scares me with raw offal is it has live bacteria..
I eat raw meats bin on the carnivore life style for 6 or so year's I've never had a problem with the raw meat. 🥩
